Review from J F (Mother of Child) published on 23 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Only good things to say: the kids are so well looked after here! The food is freshly made on site, the play areas are fresh and clean and really fun (wish I got to play in there!), and the staff so good. Our kid loves it there! We've noticed some brilliant changes since they started (confidence, new skills). Highly recommend!

Review from Grace C (Mother of Child) published on 23 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending Pobl Bach Johnstown since she was 11 months & she is now 3 years old. It's become home from home for her, well for the both of us. She absolutely loves the staff - they are all very attentive, caring & hard working.
Communication is a big plus, everyone is approachable & you are always listened to. Nothing is too much. I am always updated with any necessary information.
It's so lovely to receive updates on the app, they are always taking part in educational, fun activities. As an only child my daughter has thrived since attending nursery, she engages well with other children & has become much more confident.
Overall, my daughter is well cared for, just the reassurance you want when having to work full time and navigate the changes to child care. But our experience has been nothing but comforting and positive.
Thank you for a great experience.

When I asked my daughter what she liked about Pobl Bach, she said 'I like Giselle & my friends!'

Review from Natasha L (Mother of Child) published on 23 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The nursery is always exceptionally clean. They offer a great rotation of food for the little ones. The app is fantastic and I get regular updates as to what Noah is up to, with pictures too!

The staff are super friendly and professional. I visited a few nurseries and none of them could compare to Pobl Bach. The activities and toys they provide for the children are in great condition and very entertaining. There are plenty of sensory elements, a reading corner, and they use twinkly lights and white noise to help them sleep which helps my boy so much. I can't fault it!

Review from Sarah R (Mother of Child) published on 19 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with the care and commitment to first class early years education and support that the Pobl Bach Johnstown team provide for our son. He was quite anxious about being away from us at first, but the team were very patient and supportive of him through the adjustment. We value their communication on everything from his wellbeing, to what he's eaten and what activities he's done. He enjoys his cuddles, and play time with each of the staff and always comes away happy and smiling. We're grateful to have such an incredible environment to entrust him in on our doorstep. Thanks so much team!

Reply from Nia Tobias, Manager at Pobl Bach Nursery (Johnstown)

Thank you so much for your kind words!

We're so pleased your son feels happy and supported with us-it's lovely to hear how well he's settled in. Our team works hard to create a caring, reassuring environment, so this means a lot. We're grateful for your trust and love having him with us!

Review from Angela C (Grandmother of Child) published on 19 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My grandson has attended Pobl Bach for three years now since he was a year old. I have dropped him off and picked him up on numerous occasions and have always found all the staff to be very friendly and approachable. They send photos of what activities he has participated in and keep us all informed of what events are happening in nursery etc. He says the food is yummy too! My grandson has loved attending the nursery and has made lots of friends there and he will be sorry to leave there at the end of this month after which he will be in full time school. Would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone.

Reply from Nia Tobias, Manager at Pobl Bach Nursery (Johnstown)

Thank you so much for your kind review!

We're so glad your grandson has enjoyed his time with us and that you've felt supported and welcomed by the team.

We'll miss him and wish him all the best as he starts school!

Review from Catrin M (Mother of Child) published on 17 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Pobl Bach is an amazing nursery. We always have a warm welcome in the morning from staff and my little boy loves attending. The fact that the nursery is bilingual is fantastic. Communication is great with the staff and using the app allows for parents and carers to see what their children are up to and there is a clear line of communication. Staff answer messages very quickly. My son loves attending and I would highly recommend this nursery.

Pobl Bach is a wonderful nursery that provides a warm, nurturing environment for children to learn and grow.

The staff are always so friendly and make sure my little girl feels happy and creative with their weekly themes. Not to forget the home cooked meals they get too.

Highly recommended for parents seeking quality care and education for their little ones!

Review from Sara-Jane L (Mother of Child) published on 5 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have placed my two boys in this nursery as they needed some interaction with other children as we dont have family near. It is a great place very friendly staff and loads of activities for them to do in a day.
One of my boys is on the autism spectrum and is non-verbal. The staff always cater to his needs and help him with his struggles he has grown so attached to the staff now from when he started. They always adapt activities if needed for him as he doesn't really like to get involved but I have seen a real difference in him.
The staff have great communication with the parents and inform them if they need items for example more nappies or wipes and also very friendly when dropping off or picking up.

The nursery overall is a winner in my eyes as it has really helped my boys interaction with others and learning new things with confidence.

Overall Experience

My little one started here very recently and from the fantastic experience we had with our first child that attended here we had no concerns what so ever. The staff are fantastic and always keep me updated on all the fun activities my little one gets up to. The development and progression I see from my little one attending here further assures me that we made the best choice choosing this nursery.

Overall Experience
Fantastic in all aspects. I won't go into specifics because I'll be here all day but the staff are excellent, the activities they put on daily are so thoughtful and educational and by the sounds of it, my child eats better than me there!
You will not have to worry about a thing once your child goes inside- I could not wish for a better place for mine to be cared for whilst I'm at work.

I could not recommend this nursery enough.

Review from Agnieszka R (Mother of Child) published on 11 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son went to the nursery from the age of 2 until he started full-time school. He loved it and always came back happy. My daughter joined when she was only 1 month old. Now she's 3.5 and still at the nursery. She simply loves it and has lots of friends. They have a large garden outside and plenty of space to play under the colorful roof and inside the building.All the staff are so kind and helpful. We highly recommend this place.

We couldn't be happier with our daughter's experience at this nursery. The staff are incredibly warm, patient, and attentive, and it's clear they genuinely care about each child. Our daughter has grown so much in confidence and independence since joining, and she's always excited to go in each morning.

The activities are thoughtful and engaging, the communication is excellent, and the environment always feels safe, clean, and welcoming. We're so grateful for the positive impact the nursery has had on her early development. Highly recommend!
